These are so nice. No more worry of losing wires from pulling on them to remove the bullets. Also work great on charge leads. Pick up a set you won't be dissatisfied.
Maybe these require more skill with a soldering iron than I've got to make them fit nicely. For me they were an inconsistent fit, even with the supplied bullets, and didn't really provide a great deal more to grab onto when dirty. I ended up tossing em. The caps do look nice.
I have been using these since they came out years ago. They are high quality and look amazing. You need to be able to do clean solder work to get them on easily. A little practice and you will be happy with these for sure.
Great all around bullet connector. The heatsink grip makes removing your bullets without straining your leads very easy. A little solder goes a long way with these connectors, too much solder and you will not be able to get the cap on.
I'm not getting the bad reviews either. I use these on every build requiring bullet connections. 5 stars
Reviewers generally praise the heatsink grip caps for making bullet connectors easier to unplug without straining the wires, and several say the caps look good. Installation is the main point of disagreement: most note that good soldering skill and careful tinning are needed for a snug fit, and some say too much solder prevents the cap from seating. A few report connectors working loose, with one describing intermittent power loss mid-race, and one reviewer's complaint concerns shipping rather than the product. Opinions on value vary, with one reviewer questioning whether the price is justified. Most reviews are for the Black/Red variant.
